  1. The Mockery of Nursing

    guest563546 replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    In that case my advice would be: Speak to them. With an attitude like that, having one good convo would be more than enough to ensure your

    *sigh* Oh for the day when I become a crusty old

  5. The Mockery of Nursing

    guest563546 replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I just want to say that I fall into the category of several groups who have been "made fun of" in this thread and I don't take any offense whatsoever. I haven't worked as a nurse yet, currently a...

  6. The Mockery of Nursing

    guest563546 replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Mooohoohahaha, this brought back a fave memory from clinicals. An RN program did clinicals on the same floor as our LPN program (different school). I'm NOT hatin here, but a lot of the girls in that...

    My first thught was pee while intoxicated, then Media while intoxicated...it's been a long

  8. stretched earlobe piercings as CNA?

    guest563546 replied to stretchedlobez's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Sad but true, jbluehorseh. My mom is in her late 50's, but she's one of the ones who wouldn't care. My fiance is in his mid 40's, very old fashioned and raised in the south, he tends to be more...

    guest563546 replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It just worked for me. The warning is at the very beginning.

  10. stretched earlobe piercings as CNA?

    guest563546 replied to stretchedlobez's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    My grandpa used to say "You never know who you're standing next to". I understood that to mean that I wouldn't always be able to tell the bad guys from the good (or the stupid from the smart,...

  11. DWI and taking the NCLEX..

    guest563546 replied to EricaSAFJAF's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    We were advised by our instructors that the BON looks down on criminal activity that you engage in while attending nursing school even more so than they do if it happened before you were admitted. Not...

  12. The Mockery of Nursing

    guest563546 replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    After reading that, and being a newbie myself, I still don't feel like I quite fit into one of those categories. I would therefore like to petition to be a crusty old newbie. And if anyone would like...

  13. Failed NCLEX 5 Times! Am I The Only One Who . . .

    guest563546 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    Oy, that's what it was, Colleen! We had to take an exit exam. The scoring was kind of ludicrous. If you scored 75 it was actually a ninety-something, or some similar craziness. But you had to have a...

  14. Failed NCLEX 5 Times! Am I The Only One Who . . .

    guest563546 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    Hmmm, if I remember correctly, if we failed the first attempt our school required us to take a remedial course. Not the state, mind you, our school. That being said, we started out with a class of...

  15. The Mockery of Nursing

    guest563546 replied to Old.Timer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I try to stay out of the m*** stuff (I usually leave that to my Mom) but I have snickered and giggled myself into some very fine stomach cramps this morning while reading this thread. Imho, I had the...

  16. Feeling incompetent

    guest563546 replied to mestrada's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I thought "learning how to study" was one of the stupidest things I'd ever heard...until I started nursing school. Now I know it's all about learning what to focus on. Flashcards helped me a lot. If...

  17. Is this new nurse culture shock or is this plain out blasphemy?

    guest563546 replied to Marie.rn's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Scary! I hope things start looking up for

  18. ABAC & Darton Nursing!

    guest563546 replied to HADD7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You can do the pre-req at another college. ABAC has their transfer articulation (list of the classes from your chosen school and the equivalent classes at ABAC, and whether the class will/will not...

  19. Georgia License Denial-Clock Hours

    guest563546 replied to adajoy588's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I'm far from expert on this, but I know someone who was hired before she got her license. They hired her technically as a CNA, but after she received her license they changed her to LPN. Maybe you...

  20. Can stupid people pass nursing school?

    guest563546 replied to countrygirl1234's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    EVERYBODY struggles in nursing school, I don't care how brilliant they are. And don't think of yourself as stupid. I'm sure you have your strong subjects and your weak ones, again just like everyone....

  21. ABANDONED

    guest563546 replied to GitanoRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is heartbreaking. I don't think any parent in the right frame of mind could do this. Addiction turns people into someone even their own families don't recognize. Very sad

  22. PA scope of practice for LPN. IV pushes?

    guest563546 replied to horrorxgirl's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I did IV pushes as an LPN student during clinicals. I live in Georgia, our rules may be

  23. New LVN grad needs job..suggestions???

    guest563546 replied to BRITT_LVN22's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I don't know what your area is like or where you're willing to work, but a lot of people from my graduating LPN class were able to quickly get jobs at ped offices. Nursing homes also seemed more...

  24. PVT= bull****

    guest563546 replied to nyguynurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Sorry to hear this. Good luck on your next try! Study hard and don't give up. If you made it through school, you CAN do

  25. did anyone here have to do this in nursing school?

    guest563546 replied to bernikitty's topic in General Students

    I agree with not_done, asking someone who works with your child on a regular basis and knows his individual needs is a great idea. If you're to shy to come right out and ask, maybe just talk to them...
